Tires! 265/75-16 BFG's $140 off Craigslist. 2 have a lot of tread, 2 have less, but they all look to be in very nice condition. I settled on used because I really need to get some tires on it but I don't want to drop a ton of cash on it right now. Just need to scrounge up some 16" wheels.

Wheels are a toughie. Not many suitable ones for sale around here and wheels can make or break the whole look of a truck. Since used ones are 200-300 and new ones are a little over 400 delivered to my door, I am really leaning towards new. That way I know for sure they are round, straight and curb rash free.

This is sort of the look I hope to eventually achieve..... eventually....

What year is the motor? i see what looks like the Duraspark module on the drivers side outboard from the brake master. yeah, with a 460 the 3.54 gears should be great. those 16.5 chrome spokes and wide base bias ply tires say it sat in a barn quite a while....helluva score for $500

You might want to do a bit of checking to see if the VIN on the frame matches the warranty plate. If you have a Low Fuel Economy light in the instrument cluster, that is a 1975 feature ONLY. Also, the 460 would have come with Duraspark in 1975. Now, if you find the ViN number don't match, I'm not sure I'd run to DMV and tell them. That would open a whole can of worms. BUT, at least YOU will know what you have. Basically, something here doesn't add up...

I might check that out, not that I want to stir up any trouble, but it would be nice to know.

I am finding evidence that it had a dash fire at some time in it's life, so it's entirely possible that the instrument cluster may have been replaced. Maybe even the whole harness, I don't know. This truck is hardly a virgin. The wiring is severely hacked in some places and I know that the hood was replaced at some point.
